QEMU 10.1 available on pve-test and pve-no-subscription as of now

[fiona]

Hi,

I’m currently updating some of my VMs to use newer machine types, and I noticed that Proxmox offers both pc-q35-10.0+pve1 and pc-q35-10.1.
Before applying this change in production, I’d like to ask:
Which one is recommended for a stable production environment?

• Is it safer to keep using the Proxmox-patched version (pc-q35-10.0+pve1)?
• Or is pc-q35-10.1 (without the PVE suffix) already considered stable and fully supported for production workloads?

machine versions are incremental, so changes that apply for 10.0+pve1 also apply for 10.1. In particular, the change for which the bump was made. In general, it's recommended to use the latest available version.
